It was written that "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result." That is an accurate description of the city's approach to homelessness. Only housing solves homelessness; we are finding housing in the private market which low wage working families can afford. People need help finding housing; once found, they have what we all need -- the stability and security to face life's challenges. Good shelters are an oxymoron; bad shelters is a redundancy -- stop trying to fix them -- get rid of them, convert what can be converted to housing and use the city funds to create a rational city-based housing subsidy program. Try the approach which is sweeping across the country, because Housing First Rocks!
